    I am trying to use the BCC Cube for BCC5 with AECS3.

    I have 6 different images that are the SAME size and I place each one for a specific face.

    But for some reason, the cube is more of a rectangle than equally sized cube.

    The only way I can fix it is if I use Scale Y and Z. I would think that if all the images are equal size, a cube would automatically be created and not a rectangle.

    What am I forgetting?

    thanks,

    Simon

    Hi Simon,

    If the media to which the Cube was applied is not square then the resulting Cube will not be square either. To prove this, try making a solid layer that is 250 x 250 pixels and apply the cube to that – it should be a perfect square. To retain the square shape while using non-square media you need to pre-comp the media so that it is square.

    I hope this helps.

    Peter.

    You are right.

    It was a PAR issue.

    Now it works.

    Thanks for your help.
